Professional photographer John Bonner will be the guest speaker at the Comox Valley Horticultural Society meeting on Monday, May 15.
Bonner will share his expertise on the best way to take photos of a garden, focusing on light, colour, focal point, composition, background and shape.
Bonner ran a portrait photography studio in Toronto before beginning his career as a freelance photojournalist. In 1987 he won a 鈥楶hoto of the Year鈥� award with the Toronto Sun.
He spent many years in Banff, Alberta initially to manage a one-hour film lab but later he joined a wedding and portrait studio and from there was born.
